Canadian Grand Prix

Share



Canada's Grand Prix track is one of the calendar's best stops, not so much for the challenge of the track as for the all-round appeal of the venue.

The Circuit Gilles Villeneuve - named for the late, great Ferrari star - is no huge test for the drivers.

But its combination of straights and slow corners often provides fast, furious, action-packed racing.

And Montreal, an atmospheric blend of North American and European culture, is a charming and exciting place.

F1 circuit guide

There are 18 tracks on this year's calendar, which you can find in a link on the left-hand side of this page, but this guide details all the tracks that host F1 races at this time.

That means it includes tracks that host races on intermediate years, such as those in Germany and Japan.

And we have left on Indianapolis in the US for the time being because of the anticipation that it may return to the calendar.

Top F1 drivers Jarno Trulli and Mark Webber provide commentary on each track - in both animated and static forms.

There is also detailed analysis of each track, as well as links to weather forecasts for the area and guides to the host country.

More details on the new Valencia and Singapore tracks will be added when available.
